Wonder if Boeing or Gulfstream is behind this.

Hard as they might try, there are certain physics laws that can not be modified. If a body pierces the space at Mach 2, 3, etc. and at FL500 or 600, a reaction in the opposite direction and of the same force will affect the body (Newton 3 law) and the result will be that the body hitting the molecules will produce a boom which is annoying as hell. Simply as that. Mark my words.

True but they're working on spreading these molecules out with body configurations so the boom isn't like a lightning bolt, rather a thump.

NASA is already testing "quiet boom" aircrafts. I hope that the era of supersonic travelling would come back soon, I'm longing to get aboard of one of these planes.

The U.S. Congress could reauthorize the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) to set federal and international policies, regulations, and standards

well, the FAA has the authority to set international policies. good to know.

and before you SJW to all alex jones on me. the article did not say that by their influence, numerous other countries adopt and recognize the authority of the FAA. the article said, the FAA will set international policy.
